obama supporters arranged for a pop-up polling place at the university of iowa today. they had the first lady go to the university of northern iowa. it was not a get out the vote event. rather, it was a much more direct, go vote now event. that had first lady speak, and then they had a university marching band lead people from the audience of the first lady's speech directly to the voting booth. don't you always wish voting was like this? voting needs more drum majors. more cow bell. more skinny kid in the front wearing a xylophone and playing the keys off it. i want voting to always have this happening. so the obama folks are ahead in the polls and that means they're trying to reach tangible benefit in the form of votes, right this way, right now, follow the marching band to the polls. the romney folks on the other hand, are behind. which means they have a different job to do. they don't want america to go vote right now. if america went and voted right now, nate silver says president obama would win by 138 electoral votes. there are no marching bands leading people t
